| Book Description This bilingual collection of jazz-like poetry is a play of language and ideas， with language leading the way. These poems portray the world as a hodgepodge， a conglomeration of things， a nearly incomprehensible multiplicity. The poems take the form of a collage， full of similarities and contrasts that are left unresolved. Yet beneath the poetic play there is a troubling despair， a sense of disorder. Yurkievich both celebrates and laments the world's pandemonium， writing in the tradition of Pablo Neruda and Cesar Vallejo. Like jazz solos， spontaneously flowing in response to themselves， they are great joys to hear aloud. Esta colección de poesía， mezclado con jazz， juega con el lenguaje e ideas. Estos poemas demuestran el mundo como un collage， una conglomeración de cosas， y una multiplicidad incomprensiva. Los poemas llenos de contrastes y parecidos quedan sin respuestas. Abajo del juego poético hay desesperación y un sentido de desarreglo. Yurkievich celebra y lamenta el pandemonio del mundo escribiendo en el estilo de Pablo Neruda y Cesar Vallejo. Como los solos de jazz， los poemas responden solamente a sí mismos， son magníficos oír en voz alta.
